Memory into Memoir: A Writing Workshop

Description

Everyone has an autobiography, but not everyone writes it. Turning your memories into memoir is a self-conscious act of preservation, presentation and editing. In this workshop, you develop your awareness of two crucial techniques: narrative voice and the use of scenic detail. Voice is central to the memoir and scenic detail enriches your presentation. You explore memoir from the writer's perspective, using prompts and exercises to jump-start your creative thinking. Bring with you a notion of what you want your memoir to explore. Leave with some ignition – even inspiration – and guides you can work with beyond this class.
